keyboard short cut

is there a keyboard short cut to get to the next page on this or any other forum

I beleive Vbuttilin may have one built in but browsers do not have page specifc hot keys build into them..

The HTML accesskey attribute gives keyboard shortcuts to links and forms on web pages, so it depends on whether the web site designer (or vBulletin customisation) has used it on the links. This site has only a few keyboard shortcuts, e.g. Alt+1 is the Forums index, Alt+2 is Today's posts. Search the page source for 'accesskey' to find a few more.

The Alt+accesskey shortcuts work as is in Firefox; in Internet Explorer you then have to press the Return key.

Not a keyboard short cut, but if you right click your mouse you will get a window that allows you to left click back or forward, at least it does in FF and IE

That "back/forward" is the same as the "back/forward" icons at the top of the browser window - it doesn't move you between pages in a thread, unless you've previously opened the later pages in the thread.

Yes I know, but the OP wants to do that, but with the keyboard, I don't know if that can be done, but I have suggested another way for him without touching the keyboard as I doubt his request would work any different assuming it can be done.

yes I have back and forward keys that I use,
it was to find a key that would move the threads onto the next page to view that I was wanting
thanks
